I would love to sit down and write hearts and flowers nonsensical prose, but right now, it isn't where I am.

My primary care doctor is leaving, so … Continue reading Positively Honest

When I decided to take "Poison In Lethal Doses" from a printed, exclusive, personally publicized format to an online, public, still personally publicized, but zero profit format, I opened it up in a way I wasn't quite expecting. I won't lie; having experience helped. Having confidence helped even more. In no way was I "just … Continue reading Ignoring The Crossroads

This year was extremely frightening and traumatizing for my cats. They were terrified in a way I have never seen before and I pray I never see it again. I am outraged by the crap my neighbors pulled.

After a failed attempt last month to have a discussion with my headache specialist regarding my migraines getting worse, today was my first successful Telehealth discussion, and it felt good.
